Decoding the Great Pyramid

DVD 2019

How did the Egyptians engineer the Great Pyramid of Giza so precisely, and who were the thousands of laborers who raised the stones? New archaeological evidence, including a logbook of a labor team leader, provides new insights into these age-old questions. Nova delves into these construction secrets to trace how mobilizing labor and resources on such a massive scale transformed ancient Egypt.
